January 6, 1942.
INSURANCE NOTICE
Insurance Coverage for American Red Cross Personnel Assigned
To Stations Outside of the United States of America.
Life Insurance
The American National Red Cross has taken out a Group Life Insurance Policy with
the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of New York, covering full time employees
engaged in foreign war relief work outside of the United States as determined by The
American National Red Cross. This insurance is effective as of the date of your de-
parture from the United States or, if employed abroad, then from the date of such
employment. On proof of death, or in the event of death resulting from permanent
total disability incurred in Red Cross service, $2000.00 is payable to the beneficia-
ry designated by you. Change of beneficiary may take place at any time upon written
notice by you on blanks which the Red Cross will furnish. The Certificate of Insur-
ance issued in your name by the insurance company will be filed in your personnel

nated person in this country or to yourself. All premiums will be paid by the
American Red Cross without any expense to you. Insurance coverage ceases on the date
of the termination of your employment as an employee of the American Red Cross engaged
in foreign war relief operations outside of the United States. You have, however, the

Company, without evidence of insurability, at a premium applicable to your attained
age, if you make application to the company within thirty-one days after the termina-
tion of your employment.
